The number of languages spoken around here reflects the cultural diversity of Mangalore; Tulu (the most popular and most widely spoken language here, with a slight variation spoken by the Brahmin community), Kannada (the official state language), Konkani (two different versions exist: the one spoken by the Konkani Catholics and another spoken by the Konkanas or the Goud-Saraswaths). Beary is too spoken by Muslims. Haveeka is spoken by havyaka brahmins. English and Hindi are also widely spoken, so communication shouldn't be much of a problem.
